Jalen Reagor Bothered by "Cap Ass Shit"
Jalen Reagor checking in on Twitter (this was already deleted):
Couple of thoughts here:
- Originally, I thought he was talking to John Clark specifically, but he says “y’all,” which suggests to me that he could be annoyed with anybody and everybody in general. Annoyed by media, fans, etc.
- Reagor is a first round draft pick who hasn’t lived up to expectations yet. He’s obviously going to be scrutinized in camp just like every first rounder is.
- Reports have him working mostly with the second unit so far.
- “cap” means you’re lying or exaggerating something. If you hear someone say “no cap” it means “for real,” or “no lie.” This is my understanding as a 37-year-old white man who went to Boyertown.
These are always losing battles. If media and fans are indeed engaging in “cap ass” behavior, then so be it. It doesn’t change the fact that you’ve gotta get it figured out on the field. Two things can be true at the same time, but the net positive for Reagor going to Twitter to say anything other than “I’m gonna work hard this year” is probably going to be non existent. Actually, going to Twitter for anything is probably a net negative to begin with.
Jalen Reagor needs to focus on Jalen Reagor and nothing else. No cap.
